Will this collar distinguish the wearer's bark from other dogs barking or other loud noises?

I'm not sure. All I know is it only took 3 times and my dog stopped barking at other dogs when we went on a walk.

This collar works off of vibration from the dog's vocal chords that it receives by being pressed against the dog's neck. It does not have a microphone that listens for a bark like other collars. Mine has never been triggered by another dog barking, a loud noise, or a thunderstorm. They provide a "tester" which is a serrated piece of plastic that goes over the vibration sensor. You scrape something across the tester to trigger the collar's response. The collar actually has to "feel" a vibration, and sound waves aren't enough to vibrate the collar, whereas being against your dog's neck when it barks will vibrate the collar.

NO it will not distinguish the bark of the wearer and other dogs. I have five dogs and when the collar is placed on one dog and another dog barks the one wearing the collar will be shocked. Some loud noises will set the collar off. One experience with my dog was when a storm was coming through and thunder set the collar off.

Good question. There are certainly times when our dog barks when he doesn't have the collar on. However, I would say that the annoying barking is definitely decreasing. The main thing is that if we just show him the collar, he grumbles a bit but basically he shuts right down. If the collar is on him, he doesn't usually bark more than once or twice.

I have multiple dogs as well and the other dogs barking do not set the collar off only the dog wearing it will set it off.

No this is not a bark collar. It will not automatically react to your dog barking.

Yes it does. We really like this collar. It has adjustable settings or just a beeper.

Sure. If it's a dog that has a neck and barks from time to time this item may work.

No it does not react to sound of barking. You may use the manual vibration mode to bring attention to dog

The beep is not loud for the human ear, but my dog can definitely hear it. I had the same reservation, but after initial training my hardheaded dog turns around immediately when he hears the warning sound from the collar.

It's not a bark collar....trust me, I wish it was a combo unit but as a shock/ vibrate collar, it hasn't failed me one bit. Good luck

Yes, there is a Bark Correction Mode. I haven't tried it (my dog isn't a barker), but guide says the device does.

No, this is not a bark collar. You would have to use the controller to "beep" them for bark control.

I don't believe the collar has that function, it pretty much just works the intensity. The control box does however have that setting. There three settings on the box. 1. Beep. 2. Beep/shock. And 3. Shock only.

the collar will keep both dogs calm. My dog dosent pick on my brothers dog anymore. I have also seen trainers us them to make two dogs get along while being instructed by a behavioral specialist

It makes a "beep" sound that just gets the dogs attention, my dog never responded to that she responded to the collar's other option which was a vibration setting. The collar does not shock the dog.

Measure his neck. Be aware that you will need to cut the fur below the chin on his neck for the prongs to make contact with the skin. It won't work otherwise. It certainly stopped the barking of my pomerian-terrior mix. With the on-off switch, he is now wearing the collar without it being activated and no barking occurs.

no there is not. There is however, an audible tone before the shock. Only took one shock from this collar on a low setting, now my dog responds to the audible tone, and the shock is never used.

The collar emits a very weak sound can only be heard approaching the ear. Be careful to do it may be shocked. The dog listens well that sound. My dog is wearing the collar for over a year and it works perfectly. It is imperative to training the dog as the manufacturer instruction. It is long and tiring but it is very important to do it well.
